The Death of King Arthur
ISBN: 9780571298419 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. "The Alliterative Morte Arthure" - the title given to a four-thousand line poem written sometime around 1400 - was part of a medieval Arthurian revival which produced such masterpieces as "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" and Sir Thomas Malory's prose "Morte D'Arthur".

Simon Armitage is already the master of this alliterative music, as his earlier version of "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" (2006) so...

Stanza Stones
ISBN: 9781907587306 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 109 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. The newly drawn Stanza Stones Trail runs through forty-seven miles of the Pennine region, some of the most strikingly varied landscape in the world.

Armitage composed six new poems on his Pennine walks and, with the help of local expert Tom...

The Odyssey: A Dramatic Retelling of Homer's Epic
ISBN: 9780393330816 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. In this new verse adaptation, originally commissioned for BBC radio, Simon Armitage has recast Homer's epic as a series of bristling dramatic dialogues: between gods and men; between no-nonsense Captain Odysseus and his unruly, lotus-eating, homesick companions; and between subtle Odysseus (wiliest hero of antiquity) and a range of shape-shifting adversaries Calypso, Circe, the Sirens, the Cyclops as he and his men are "pinballed between islands" of adversity. One of the most individual voices of his generation, Armitage revitalizes our sense of the Odyssey as oral poetry, as indeed one of...
